had a DOD lifter on my 08 that had enough internal spring pressure to keep slack out of valve train but not locking up to move rocker arm. Anyway, I just replaced the pair of DOD lifters and had ECM programing removed. That was at 74,000. Currently at 212,000. Maybe i got lucky, I know removing the programming isn't going to fix bad lifters, but maybe not letting them actuate will decrease the odds of them failing

I might consider more power but stopping and fuel consumption

This is a perfect example of what not to do… You need to do the complete DOD/AFM delete not change out the cover! I was shaking my head when he said he was going to replace the cover and I knew this wasn’t going to end well…. It’s like putting on new brake pads on worn rotors 🤣

This is the exact reason why so many people are retarded. Make videos trying to explain things that you obviously have no idea wtf you're talking about. Everyone wants to feel special but you end up looking like a fool. have fun replacing that motor in a while.

You think GM would have learned off their Cad that did that years ago and didn't work and people have to reengineer their mistakes because they are a big piece of 💩 have a blessed day today 🙏

😂

Nobody do anything this guy does. I thought he was trolling but he’s actually for real lol.

I don’t even know where to begin. What’s clear is you don’t belong anywhere near the engine of any car.

Not a true LS3 at all. Not even close. What this is- is a 6.0 (L96) with LS3 heads. LS3 is a 6.2 which is more displacement. It has bigger compression, far bigger than the 6.0. LS3 has a better crankshaft than the L96, better mains, better lifters, better intake. L96 is MAYBE making 500 at the crank if it has a big camshaft and long tube headers. But it ain't making 600hp+ without changing out your internals. L96 is losing at the line vs an LS3 all day every day. People confuse this comparison ALL the time. I have an 07 Escalade that had an Aluminum L92 6.2 which is even CLOSER to an LS3 than the L96... But I ended up swapping that out for a REAL LS3/ LS9 Aluminum block with a Fast 102 intake and a stage 4 TSP cam. My L92 could never put out the numbers and LS3 can without changing internals, and that's a fact. Maybe not label your video "Budget LS3" without actually showing an L92 with converted LS3 components, or an L99 block with VVT delete.

Paint the sails and plastics. SEM for the win. All that work and the sails make the truck look terrible.

Did you change the cam lifters an smack the bearings into the oil ports?

Great video

Badass

😂😂😂😂

Yeah the ratchet strap on the alternator bracket should tell you everything you need to know

Happens all the time on plow trucks it’s cast aluminum they just snap or someone is having a bad day and they pull to hard. Parts are cheap at least from ford to fix it.

First mistake was getting one with the stick bit in the wrong spot and short a pedal.

Don’t forget plugging the oil ports under the cover

Answer , shit happens on old trucks!

I really don't know I have a 95 explorer with over 700K miles on it and mine still works fine, guessing somebody had some methedup strength got upset on how much the scrap yard was paying and took it out on the truck

Because gm threw their standards out the window in chase of higher profit margins and shareholder pressure for endless quarterly growth back in the late 1970’s

He really wanted a three on the tree!😁

Looks like it's been there your hole life

Honda Power

So to sum it up…..you’re a hack. Why the phuck would you do a half assed repair and not do the parts that go with the valley cover.

You didn’t notch the frame for the rear drop? Is it not necessary on a 6” drop?

Awesome info man! I’m new to all this. My 14 yo son and I picked up a 2001 camaro and we want to put a 6.0 with a 4l80 in it. What would be the best donor. I have a buddy that suggested a 99-2002 2500 or 3500 with 2wd. He said having a donor with the pcm harness motor and trans make it easy. We aren’t looking for crazy power or to build it like crazy. Plan to just put in a decent cam. Trying to stay away from vvt and dod. Just want to freshen seals and a cam and slap it in. Thanks for all the great info.

So I just got one for $200 and I am wondering a lot more about them mine came out of a 2008 Silverado with 243 heads

I changed rear main seal twice Oil was leaking from oil seND unit. Couldn't see it with dye or dropping x member. Finally founder it changing Valley cover

So all you did was replace the vlom? With no plug on the vlom plate, you are gonna have an engine light as soon as it tries to activate. You either have to do a complete delete or tune it out of the ECM.

no way you were actually this dumb lol legendary

I just bought a 2011 LTZ Avalanche. Man I love this thing got so many plans for it

A for effort bro we all live and learn at least you try afm lifters have to be removed

Damn how you think that was a dod delete

As long as you do the full delete (new lifters, new cam, new valley plate and turn off the selector in the tune), this IS the best thing you can do for your AFM GM engine. Period.

Wait… so he didn’t actually do a DOD delete… he just tuned the ECM out and put a valley plate on..?? LMAO… Wow.. what an idiot! And here I thought the video was about bad valley plates… 😂

Did someone need help inside your house? That screaming sounds concerning.

That Camaro is Badass! Love the color and the fit and finish gorgeous! I am partial to the Z-28 steering wheels of the late 70s Z28

That LS looks great in the 73 Firebird Formula!

This is funny. No lifter change, tray change, camshaft change, or PCM reprogramming. Gotta love youtube. 😂

Really great video. My son and I are building an 08 work truck, V6. Leaning towards a 6.0 van motor with a four speed trans, what’s the best swap for this? 16-year-old driving it so don’t need huge power.

Love the Avalanche, that sound is beautiful! I have an 05 and love driving it

LMFAO what a dumb ass how embarrassing

How much did it cost?

No vídeo on your channel

My Dear GMO.....what da hell are you spraying - over yur head - with no effen safety glasses, at the start of the video~~!!??? I don't know anything that dissolves oil, that is also gud for yur eyes, or yur lungs, or yur skin. You are making me squirm over here. Pleeeeze bro.

Nice how many miles on that LQ9 ?

A year later... You still have the suburban? Howzit running?

Man i must be close to having them all , i got 12 chevy trucks all but two broke down , lifters on all the gen 4's , got 3 or 4 of them , they get older from there 2 - 03's , a 05 , 2 - 2000's & 4 squarebodies , 2 dodges ...if they break just buy another one ...sw florida

I'm living in Europe and understand why GM produced this shi.. afm engines. Because of these stup.. guys who don't know how they can spend their money to afm pub' s! 😂😂😂
